For those of you experiencing the process of ascension – here are some aspects. Not everyone is experiencing the same processes. Just know that you are not alone…

Below are some common experiences of leaving the old world behind, what they mean, and some tools for comfort:

1. You suddenly feel like you have jumped off a cliff with no net, with strong feelings of no sense of place and nothing to hold onto.

This is an indication that you have made a separation from older and denser energies that are now residing where you are not. This occurs many times during the ascension process, each time that a critical mass is met within and sometimes without. This feeling always passes in time, even though it can feel very uncomfortable when it is occurring. We can take comfort in knowing that these feelings always pass, and that we eventually begin to recognize and accept them the more often they occur.

2. No one seems to notice you, pay attention to you, or give you much, if any, regard.

Although this can create uncomfortable feelings of dis-respect, irreverence and even abuse, know that the individuals that are not “seeing” you are in a completely different space. In the old world, many individuals have not yet evolved out of themselves, and thus, are seeing through a substantial wall of density or ego. It is still all about what is inside of them, as they are not yet ready to see that everything around them is part of one beautiful whole, that each and every one of us is a brilliant light comprising that whole, and we are all one. The higher we vibrate, the more invisible we become, and the more noticeable it is. You will know when you are “seen” and revered, and these are the individuals that you will eventually choose to spend time with. The nature spirits always see us, and they are wonderful to spend time around. Staying in your own personal sanctuary can help as well. As more and more souls on the planet begin not taking things personally, they will be freed up and begin to see what is around them as well.

3. It is difficult to be in crowds and you are no longer able to participate in anything that has to do with group energy.

Unless the group is a very unusual one, where each and every member is honored and respected for who they are and what they are there to contribute, with equal amounts of involvement, and a similar purpose that is a passion for each member, groups will no longer work for you. In higher level groups there are no leaders and everyone is on equal turf and very “seen,” with much gratitude and reverence. Also, being around groups or crowds brings in a large array of differing energy, and the more highly sensitive we become, the less we are able to process or handle too much differing energy all at once. In the higher realms, things are very simple as so much of anything vibrating lower has been transmuted or shed. There is not so much density or variation to wade through or feel. Opinions do not exist and all of the energy is always going in the same direction. Thus, groups from the old world can feel downright awful once we have departed from that world. Fun groups that are here to vibrate fun and enjoyment, with no agendas while everyone involved is going in the same direction are always good ones to be involved with at any time on our journey.

4. You feel very lonely, have but a few friends and loved ones left that you regularly connect to, and no one really thinks like you do, nor understands your view of reality.

We can try time and again to make new friends, connect with new people, and join new groups, but unless these energies are vibrating where we are, it can always seem that we are going in two very different directions. It is very common with the ascension process to feel like everyone else is at the end of one long tunnel, so very far away and difficult to reach. In addition, the more we evolve, the more we find that New Age and “spiritual” groups no longer fit, as many times they contain old and stale energy, as well as spending far too much time focusing on intentional spirituality, which does not exist is the higher realms. It can be extremely difficult, if not impossible, to go back to energies that we have evolved out of…they become simply intolerable. Love always vibrates high, and even though we may not see eye to eye with everyone we encounter or connect to, connecting to the energy of love can always serve as the one and only connector or commonality and will keep alive relationships that may have otherwise dissolved.

5. You have simplified your life to a large degree, removed yourself from lower and denser energies, and you feel that there is nowhere left to go.

Congratulations! You have now reached your center, or rather the eye of the storm, the space in between thoughts, the now, and where it all is. In addition, the higher vibrating realities have not yet been created, thus, there is nowhere to go that matches where you are now vibrating. Once we reach the eye of the storm, we begin to effortlessly create much of anything that we need or want. We begin creating effortlessly, as all we need do is be still, entertain a thought very randomly, and what we desire to connect to arrives in no time. I have this experience all the time, as I know many of you do as well, so I know it to be very true and very possible. Very soon, this will be the only reality that we experience, and this is happening now. Feeling confident enough in leaving the old world behind, will naturally place us here. This is a very protected space as well.

6. You no longer have a desire to heal others, bring up the vibration of the planet, teach new ways of being, read spiritual materials, meditate, SAVE anything or anyone, or participate in anything that has a spiritual intent.

The planet has now reached a new level. Your job is over. And even before this new level was reached, after each of us reaches a certain level of frequency within, we are now ready to lose that old purpose and get a real life. This means that we do not need to speak about spiritual matters, we do not need to read about them, and we do not need to learn anything new. We come to know that being spiritual occurs very naturally 24/7. We are then simply being spiritual without having an intent to do so. Having an intent places us outside of our center and also comes from an old ego stance. Saving others or meddling with intentional desires to help others when not asked, is also very out of alignment with being an Earth Angel. Spontaneously offering spiritual guidance or messages to others fits in this category as well. There is one exception to all of this and it has to do with our store-fronts. Because our store-fronts exist on the dimensional border, and not in the old reality, they will serve to assist others in getting to the next plateau, or to the other side. In this way, we will be asked for assistance, and those asking will be poised and ready to receive what they need through our store-fronts.

7. You are so tired and weary of the old reality, that you do not care about anything anymore and simply give up with disappointment, exhaustion, apathy, and what feels like depression with a strong desire not to be here anymore. You think that nothing will EVER change. You are beyond discouraged.

You are now ready to be in the eye of the storm. You are now ready to leave the old behind. You needed to not care about what is happening elsewhere, as what is happening elsewhere no longer has anything to do with you. You had not yet realized that you had “died” and crossed over into a new reality. You were still hanging around in the old world and believing it was your world and about you. The outside, or old world, had to become so unpleasant that you would be willing to let it go. It felt acutely unpleasant, as you no longer belong there because you have died and are now being re-born. You will know when you have taken the plunge and trusted or become exhausted enough to let it all go, when you find yourself it states of great peace, contentment, trust, and calm. It is then that all your needs will be miraculously met with ease and you will feel a peace you have never known. And then…you will eventually meet others who are here as well and unite to create something very new. But before we can create something very new in a very new reality, we must first rejuvenate and restore ourselves.

BMSS Addendum

The awakening process is filled with many unexpected turns and twists. Some of the things we experience will be amazing while others seem to drain every ounce of energy we have. Many times, these are lessons that are reflected back to us to help us grow as individuals.

Many of us have either gone through the “dark night of the soul” or are currently going through it right now. When you’re experiencing it, it feels like the worst days of your life, and that’s generally true but please keep in mind that you’re never alone and that better days are ahead. Not only that, but the lessons you learn from experiencing the dark night of the soul with help your spirit grow exponentially and will allow you to help others who are going through it down the road.
